A Parade of Confetti

A big hurray for the Yankees for their stunning victory, and a parade of confetti to celebrate their twenty-seventh win in the World Series on November sixth in New York City. Fans tossing shredded paper they saved in their offices for that unexpected event, revel in their triumph, cheering up their heroes whose faces glow with glory from Battery Park to City Hall as they ride down, " The Canyon of Heroes"... and all the streets seem a scenery of snow as Bloomberg honors them with his poignant, thought-provoking wit! The cheerleaders dance and the band wearing their famous, colorful Scottish skirts, don't mind the nippy weather... what a joy to pay their tribute playing their happy, memorable tune for a great team who fought against the odds. The crowds can't get enough of their charisma and these rejoicing players accept this honor with smiles... and they know that there are many more to come in the near future, so let's cheer and hail our handsome champs. A parade of confetti tossed down by fans weeks before Thanksgiving Day, when the jubilant, vibrant city forgets all the worries to indulge in a carefree day, revving up its passionate spirit and be jolly all morning... a celebration indeed for every fan engaged in fervent hailing.
